Phillies 5, Yankees 5

Asher, a sophomore, was selected by the MLB as Youth of the Year from the Philadelphia Urban Phillies Youth Academy. Nine players from MLB Youth Academies will recognized before Game 2 Saturday.

As teammates for the Phillies, Shane Victorino and Ryan Howard won a World Series title. Now, they'll be foes as opposing managers on Banana Ball teams next summer.

Improvement will have more to do with adjustments to the approach than the personnel carrying it out. Just like what Don Mattingly saw in August and what the Rays and Brewers have done all postseason.

Lefty reliever Tim Mayza talks to the Inquirer's Scott Lauber on his new contract, pitching for the team he grew up watching, and more.

We asked Phillies fans which players they’d like back next season and they made a few things clear: They’re fed up with Trea Turner, the Daycare is done, and some veterans are falling out of favor.

The outfield is in an all-too-familiar spot for the Phillies with the need for a reliable, everyday corner outfielder.

The quality of NFL games is down ... might that be because of too many international games and off-schedule contests like "Thursday Night Football"?

Dealin' Dave, President for Life, denied offering a job to Alex Cora, said Trea Turner must audition at shortstop, and said the farm system is A-OK. Seriously: I hope John Middleton never fires him.

The Phillies’ top prospect credited Tom Brady’s training center for helping to treat “chronic stiffness” that cost him almost all of the 2026 season. Can he be their Kevin McGonigle next season?

They weren’t good by traditional standards, but they were a reflection of the working-class city in which they played. And on Oct. 13, 1993, they beat the Atlanta Braves for the National League title.

Dombrowski had a lot of answers for a disappointing Phillies season during his year-end news conference on Thursday. He didn’t offer many solutions.

"Big Phan" — which premiers Saturday at the Philadelphia Film Festival — took two years to finish as the Kepner brothers tapped into their childhood and told a story that only they could.

What if Turner doesn't improve? “We’ll have fallback opportunities,” Dave Dombrowski said, “and some of it may come back to young guys we have.”

The new Phillies full-time manager didn’t mind that the club was looking at other candidates, including Cora, before they signed him to a two-year contract on Wednesday.

Mendoza will serve as infield coach, filling the role vacated by Bobby Dickerson, and will be the third base coach.

Change will take creativity that goes beyond spending John Middleton’s money, Dombrowski’s most common solution to problems since he got hired in 2020.

After years of prioritizing continuity among players and staff, the changes may be reflective of a shift in organizational philosophies on hitting and defense.

Nick Castellanos might have hit on something when he threw shade last season at former manager Rob Thomson.

Mattingly, who led the Phillies to a 79-55 record as interim manager, is now under contract through the 2028 season, the team announced on Wednesday.

Additionally, Dean Wade remains questionable. Joel Embiid is not listed on Saturday's injury report after previously saying he'll only play in one game of this weekend's back-to-back.

The restoration follows a new U.S. diplomatic push to end the war. Russia agreed Wednesday to resume three-way negotiations with Washington and Kyiv next month.

The attack took place against a backdrop of rising violence in the West Bank since the Oct. 7 attacks. In recent weeks, extremist Jewish settlers have initiated dozens of attacks against Palestinians.

Voters will choose whether to give Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva a fourth term or let Flavio Bolsonaro fill the post his father, now on house arrest for attempting a coup, once held.

Police said they shot the 37-year-old man after he pointed a weapon at officers.

After Brown seemingly called Tatum a liar in an Instagram comment, Tatum responded after the Celtics' 107-103 win over the New York Knicks on Friday.
